Reachpad MCP

reachpad lets Claude, Codex and other coding agents build full-stack apps in persistent workspaces and share them by link, without a separate deployment. A workspace is a cloud development computer an agent operates itself: a repo, a filesystem, installed dependencies and build state that all survive between calls, not an ephemeral sandbox that forgets. Processes are the exception; see below.

People connecting coding agent tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in JavaScript.

Claude Code

claude mcp add reachpad-reachpad-mcp --transport http https://reachpad.dev/mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "reachpad-reachpad-mcp": {
      "url": "https://reachpad.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
